New DLC cars VERY VERY easy to drive?

They might be easy to drive, but putting down fast, consistent lap times is where they shine and become a little harder to drive. I'm enjoying all the DLC cars and it's a blast hot lapping them at Spa, with the exception of the Prius, which is without a doubt the worst car ever included in a DLC pack..:p
 
No other 4wd car is as easy to drive quickly as these new dlc cars. They brake HARD. And turn in like no other. Kinda unfair but i wont be complaining.
 
With the new physics the cars have become better to drive. The TC are a blast to drive also. The reason why I think thier easier to drive is due to the design of them. Thier even better to drive if you don't add any engine mods besides what they come with. The PP system is a joke and will always ghe a joke. I'm hlad that the PP range has been lowered more than half. It's about time some people whom play GT learn how to run the cars with out engine mods to thier race cars. Plus they're not much faster than stock pending on the track.
 
I only drove 3 so far, the Miata, RX-7, and R35.

Miata, fantastic, running SS tires, might be even better on SM or SH.

RX-7, fantastic, running stock RH's, tires fit the car, backend steps out if you overkill an exit, great fun. A lightweight SuperGT car, nothing less.

R35 GTR - Understeer like a dump truck, will require much tuning to drive well at all. Fast as hell but I don't care, it's terrible to drive in stock form. (full aero)

Well at least you're concerned with "teaching" people how they should play your way. ;)
Bet you wouldn't like that reversed at all.

I'm not here to teach anyone anything. The people here are smart enough on their own. Plus I also maxed out some of my race cars to compete with others. I just don’t see the point anymore. Yes you’re making the car faster seeing what it can do but that it. You’re also changing the balance of the car when you add all that extra power. In a straight line it’s great but on a road course it’s pointless. Though making the car faster is not making you faster from what I’ve learned. Knowledge is power, I’m always happy to learn so bring it on PAL...
 
I have gotten into 2 cars so far:
RX7 TC - I tuned this one to the max and made a few tweaks that I always do on my RX7s and it drives like a dream... Im not a HUGE fan of RX7s comparative to my main car I use (au Supra) but its a very close equivalent to the Supras... Sometimes the RX7s are a bit too touchy, this one feels balanced
R35 TC - Its like driving a brick, its sexy (I painted mine in DLB Chrome Red) but I cannot get this car to loosen up at all. I left it stock and only have been playing with the suspension and even with all driving aids off it still wont slide even the slightest bit to help twitch it though a corner a bit faster... DEFINITELY a "slow in - fast out" car. Super fast launches though even without mods

Just as an index of what I usually drive (90%)
au Supra
Supra '97 (one of the Standards)
R34 Skyline (one of the Premiums)
RX7 (another one of the Premiums)
Stealth GT500 R35
and for occasional fun the Oreca Viper

And that about covers the cars I use other than when I have to have another car to run the race... I think regardless, the RX7 TC and the R35 TC will be added to the list but I really need to find a smooth suspension tune that works (most of the TCs you cant really adjust but up in settings....)

And off topic... sorta.... REALLY!?!?! a PRIUS?!?! and its even BLUE?!?! (sorry, thinking for a moment about the joke that Jeff Dunham had about his blue Prius...)

They definitely drive very well. I was shocked by how much you could push the Challenger without understeering (having not touched the set-up). The RX-7 feels much more free and a bit more delicate but again very easy to control and to push. The only other two ive driven so far are the R32 and the Impreza which also feel very good but with too much understeer for my taste (again havn't touched the set up)
